The rush of the holidays are behind us.  Between bouts of shopping and decorating I got a chance to visit some family and friends.  While on my pilgrimage to Texas I caught up with my best friend, Jim.  After some preliminary catching up we decided to play some Commander.  I was fresh off of building [...]

Work has held me hostage the past few months but I could no longer resist the pull of Magic.  I needed to find something that would get my non-work self pumped again.  I decided to dig through my Legendary binder (I collected Legends before I ever heard of EDH, yay for me) to see what [...]

The June 18, 2010 DCI Banned & Restricted List Announcement is a whopper! Extended as we know it is changing dramatically, and Legacy will see some upheaval as well. Effective July 1, Extended will go from having seven years worth of Magic sets to having four years worth. A whopping eleven (11) sets are rotating [...]

Tonight, I plan to hit up the local Saturday night EDH tournament here in Albuquerque, held up at Active Imagination (known colloquially as “AI”). I just finished updating my deck, as it’s been approximately one year since last I wrote about my pet EDH spike deck. Below is a quick primer on the EDH deck [...]

Wizards has announced the decklist of ‘Teeth of the Predator,’ one of their new “Duels of the Planeswalkers” series of pre-constructed, 60-card decks.

However, in a dumbfounding and likely ill-fated move, none of the decks will actually contain the planeswalkers they [...]

The goal of the game of Magic is obviously to win, right? But there are many ways to accomplish this goal. First and foremost is to make the opponent lose the game, because if you are the last one standing, you win. If there is only one player remaining, that player wins the game. This [...]

Getting started in EDH can be a daunting task for newer players.  Fortunately for those newer players, Wizards of the Coast releases special products, such as the Duel Decks series that showcase many older cards.  The newest line in the Duel Decks series is Phyrexia vs. The Coalition.  This product is a great jumping off point [...]

A while back I took a look at new EDH Generals from Worldwake.  I decided to make a deck-list featuring Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs.  I wanted to go with a build that was full of flavor, using the imagery of the powerful ogre warlord.  In most cases of card selection I used flavor as [...]
